Clinton: Create Public Service Academy

by Associated Press , July 28, 2007

Categories:

She mentioned universal health care, ending dependence on foreign oil, expanding early childhood education and safely withdrawing troops from Iraq.

Helen Gilbert, a retired government worker originally from Virginia, said she believes women especially older women may be Clinton’s biggest hurdle.

“We’re brought up to believe the men know it all,” said Gilbert, 75. But Clinton’s track record is what has earned Gilbert’s support.

“She knows so much and she’s done so much and she’s been involved so much,” Gilbert said. “She’s going to be the president. I think it’s about time, don’t you?”
